Abstract

Somewhere, a startup is at work disrupting your business. What can you do about it? How can your company avoid the fate of once highly successful firms such as Kodak or Blockbuster? This book unravels the mechanisms of disruption, explains why great companies fail, and proposes concrete ways to turn disruptions into opportunities. Its key message is this: Failure in the face of disruption is not due to a lack of creativity, limited resources, or a resistance to change. Failure is the unintended consequence of applying "good" management practices. The solution to success lies in modifying these practices and this book will tell you how. An ideal introduction to the topic, A Manager's Guide to Disruptive Innovation is packed with interesting case studies and anecdotes of organizations faced with disruptive innovation. This book offers you: • A deep insight into the workings of disruptive innovation • Actionable steps to protect and nurture disruptive projects • Practical suggestions to transform your company's management practices to become more innovative
